Each week your child will bring home a newsletter or it will be sent on a teacher app. You will want to read this letter each week for information on class activities, upcoming events, and other pertinent information. Newsletters often explain who has Show-and -Tell, items needed for the classroom activities and other important dates. The newsletter is a very important communication connection; please watch for it and read it.
Your child’s progress report will be sent home in the spring. If you have any questions or concerns about your child’s progress you may schedule a conference with your teacher.
Communication
Proper and regular communication greatly enhance the education program. It is most important that parents/guardians feel comfortable contacting the teacher if problems or concerns arise. In order to resolve a conflict with a teacher or members of the staff, parent/guardians are asking to follow this procedure:
- Speak first to the teacher of staff person involved. If not resolved:
- Speak to the director.
Snow Days
Should the need arise during the winter months, the school may close for “snow days.” Your teacher will contact you over the phone or the teacher app.
No tuition refunds will be made for snow days, nor will snow days be “made up” at a later date. Our school year has several days built in just in case snow days are announced. Rest assured that even though classes are cancelled for snow days, the children will cover all the curriculum materials before the school year ends.
Playground Rules
Outdoor time is important for children. Please be sure that your child is dressed appropriately for outdoor play.
General Playground rules:
Rocks, pinecones, snow and sticks stay on the ground
Keep hands and feet to oneself
Stay where child can be seen by teacher
